We are located in Yarralumla, a lakeside suburb close to the CBD, the Parliament, and all the national cultural institutions. Very central.
The main attraction of the lakeside location is the easy access to the lake, with walks along the lake and in Weston Park. We are close to the Royal Canberra Golf Club, and a short drive to several popular centres for cafes and restaurants.
Canberra is an easy city to live in, with no heavy traffic and a sunny climate (but frost in Winter). There are several national parks and nature reserves close by, and the coast and the ski fields are only two and a half hours away. Sydney is three hours by car, a bit more by bus. Canberra is also a great place for cycling. There are plenty good restaurants and cafes.
